Six months ago Metro Play was launched as a tablet-app, now it is also avialable on the web.

The website offers more than 200 different games, the Casino games (slot-machine games, black jack, poker, roulette) being the most promising in terms of revenues. Gamers have to deposit between £10 and £250 and register with Metro Play Casino before they can play.

According to the press realease:

With this campaign, Metro Play aims to target its core audience of young-adult urbanites while commuting, or during their downtime at work and home.

This makes Metro Play a very exciting proposition and we are proud to bring this innovative gaming destination to the marketplace.”
